The CW will be producing American versions of the panel show “Would I Lie To You?” and a second, non-ITV series of “Killer Camp.”

 

The net has also purchased two UK series of WILTY? to acclimate us before the debut.

I don't have much faith in a network that cancelled Taskmaster after one airing.

However, the American "Would I Lie..." has amongst its producers Robert and Michelle King of "The Good Wife/Good Fight."  Granted, they haven't done anything for the C-Dub, but I don't think ViacomCBS would do anything to piss off two of their most valuable creators and showrunners--unless the American "Would I Lie..." legitimately stinks (and we do have problems trying to get British panel game formats right, unless they're hosted by Chris Hardwick and come on Comedy Central--uh, @midnight).
